Of course one of the more liberal universities in the country would give a stage to a bunch of whining children.

They are today’s young Nazis. They don’t help any downtrodden victims of colonial oppression in Gaza. They just hate Jews.

And I hate them.

we will never hire from Bezerkely again
no more donations or contributions either

the place has long been a communist cell but adding nazis is unacceptable, especially given the huge taxpayer investment they’re destroying

I’m not so surprised they’d pull a stunt like that.

“”I’m going to look back at this and be proud that I stood up for what I did,” graduating senior Jasmine Esquivel told SFGATE after the ceremony. “Everyone knows that this is a genocide, and our school is literally funding the war.”

Hope you are proud being unemployed

Chanting children with college aged bodies.

I told everyone about the Ypsilanti, Michigan Christmas parade and celebration (Nov., 2023) with a tree lighting and free cider, hot cocoa, cupcakes and donuts with every child getting a gift at the historic 1800s railroad buildings in Depot Town.

The Christmas songs of the children’s choir was drowned out by incoming anti-Israel protesters who broke up the crowd and chanted anti-Israel slogans. Kids were heartbroken after rehearsing and looking forward to a fun time.
After the whole thing was over there were spray painted slogans on the wooden pedestrian bridge over the river:
Free Palestine. Israel Out of Gaza. and most importantly:
Death To Cops and Kill Cops. Those are in red and black.

We are witnessing an attack on us by Iran.

Iran is taking money that obama gave them to hire thugs through the mediation of Soros.

Very inconsiderate to the parents of the graduates. Think I will pee on the next gay pride flag I come across.

sounds like a plan!

(be careful you’re not too close to them and guard your equipment while carrying out your mission, lest they grab it)

Just showing off the quality of candidates that they utterly lack. Hire other people far more worthy and productive.

Meanwhile, truck convoys of donated food arriving in Gaza are being hijacked and stolen by Hamas. Hamas is starving its own civilian population ! If there is genocide, it is Hamas engaging in it.

Reminds me of the old Li’l Abner comic strip from 1968 in which the Students Wildly Indignant about Nearly Everything (S.W.I.N.E.) take over the campus.
The terrified University Regents decide to sell the University! The only buyers were the Mafia who brings in the mob enforcers.
Here come the SWINE protesting!
I still get a thrill remembering how the leader of the S.W.I.N.E. used his front teeth to assault the brass knuckles of the mob enforcers. Who says brass won’t make a spark! These did. Big ones at that!
Anyone else remember that old comic strip? Could easily be reprinted today with no changes.

University and college with high THC counts cause stupidity as they prove it very little they won’t protest about.

The young and dumb are the easiest to train some chimps don’t need a banana just a cause.
